Cattle Empire LLC is one
of the largest family owned commercial cattle feeding operations
in the United States. We have 140,000 head capacity in three
different feedlots which are all within 20 miles of each other.
Our feedlots sit in the Heart of the Beef Feeding Empire
with all four major packers within 50 miles. Cattle Empire
has developed a tradition of honesty, hard work and performance,
which can only be found in a family business.

Paul Brown started that tradition in 1978 and now it is carried on
by his son Roy Brown. Paul currently acts as Chairman of the
Board of the company and oversees the various construction
projects at the feed yards.

Rather than to go in great detail trying to tell you about Paul
Brown, Roy Brown and the Brown Family's empire, we prefer to let
our friends do it. Below you will find links to a collection
of articles that have appeared in various publications which do a
good job of telling our story.

As Cattle Empire grew, its reputation for honest dealings
and reasonable cost of gains grew as well. In the course of
its growth, Paul Brown found his niche in feeding light cattle.
In one of her first articles on Paul Brown, Betty Jo Gigot for
